A Hearing on Land Use Amendment #96-4 by Fine Shelter Development Group
to designate 5.31 acres of land from "Low Density Residential" and "Medium
Density Residential" designations to the "Commercial" designation.
Wishing to be heard was Terry Driscoll, 1403 Fourth avenue S.W. Mr. Driscoll
noted that he was concerned about the increase in traffic due to the project and
also the increased noise problem that would be heard. He stated that the semi
trucks now load and unload especially during the evening hours at Crossroads
and additional truck traffic would only compound the problem.
Wishing to be heard was Dan Berndt, 505 Marquette Bank Building, representing
the applicant. Mr. Berndt noted the background of the land and of the projects
that were north of the property in question. He also noted that the project falls
under the criteria for a community shopping center under the Land Use Manual.
Mr. Berndt stated that they believe that a projected moving of the intersection
now exiting off Highway 14 to the west to Fourth Avenue S.W. will be a vast
improvement on the traffic flow.
Wishing to be heard was Bill Tointon, McGhie & Betts. Mr. Tointon spoke to the
traffic study and plan and the additional buffering around the project to lower
noise levels.
Wishing to be heard was David Braslau, David Braslau Associates, 1313 Fifth
Street S.E., Minneapolis. Mr. Braslau also spoke to the noise situations with
trucks and how the dock facilities and refuse containers would be shielded so as
to have the least amount of traffic noise projected to the neighborhood.
Wishing to be heard was Katharine Moore, 1521 Fourth Avenue S.W., wondering
why no buffering on the south if there is to be buffering on the east side.
Wishing to be heard was Bill Tointon, McGhie & Betts, noting that there is a
proposal for a buffer on the south side.
Wishing to be heard was Terry Maus, O'Brien Law Firm, 611 Marquette Bank
Building, representing Rainbow Foods and not the owners of the Crossroads
Shopping Center. Mr. Maus stated one of the principal parties involved did not
receive notice of the hearing, that being Woodmen of the World Property.
Rainbow Foods leases the property they are on from Woodmen. Rainbow Foods
opposes the application. Mr. Maus also spoke of the consequential moving of

the Highway 14 entrance on the west side of Rainbow and how that would
impact Rainbow and the other clients of Crossroads Shopping Center. The
parent company of Rainbow Foods is Fleming Company.
Wishing to be heard was Dave Patterson, 1545 Fourth Avenue S.W., opposing
the project and the moving of the intersection to Fourth Avenue. He said that the
traffic at present on Fourth Avenue is low but if the intersection is moved, it will
become a shortcut from 16th Street to Highway 14. He is not opposed to
commercial usage but there are two large grocery stores in the area already and
he cannot see the need for another.
Wishing to be heard was Jim Benshoof, Traffic Engineer, Benshoof and
Associates, Edina, Minnesota. A comprehensive traffic analysis of this project
has been developed by his firm and stated that he would provide further
information if so requested.
Wishing to be heard was Terry Spaeth, Planning Department. He noted that the
existing site of the Office 1 Superstore was rezoned B-4 and the Land Use Plan
was amended in 1986 to reflect that change. There was also an amendment in
1988 that encompassed this property and some of the property being discussed
to the south. In 1986 the property in question was treated as a part of a larger
commercial area which included the Crossroads Center and also the Apache
area.
Terry Adkins, City Attorney, addressed the Council as to the legal requirements
for sending notices to property owners affected by proposed land use changes.
He stated that Section 60.630 of the Rochester Code of Ordinances requires a
notice to be sent to the addresses listed on the County's real property tax
records. The ordinance also states that the name of any person whose
adddress is not listed on the County's tax record is not entitled to receive notice.
Mr. Adkins stated that the Planning and Zoning staff found one address on the
County's tax record (which is the same tax record Mr. Maus displayed to the
Council). The address is for Fleming Company and is P.O. Box 26647,
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. The Planning and Zoning Department sent notice to
Fleming Company at the stated address. The name "Woodmen of the World"
appears on the tax record, but no address is provided.
The ordinance, however, does allow the Council to continue the hearing for at
least ten days if the Council believes the continuance is needed to allow
Woodmen of the World to participate in the proceeding.
Councilmembers McConnell moved, Stobaugh seconded, to continue the hearing
to November 18th, 1996, to allow Woodmen of the World to participate in the
public hearing. Ayes (7), Nays (0). Motion carried.
B-9 A Hearing on Zoning District Amendment #96-13 by Fine Shelter Development

D-1 Wishing to be heard was John Spires and Judy Wright, 2030 Valkyrie Drive
N.W., wanting to talk about Ordinance 3020 for Bed and Breakfast
establishments and the PUD for Lot 15 of Woodgate Subdivision, for a bed and
breakfast establishment right next to their house. They were not notified of the
hearing for the PUD as the Real Property listing used by Planning and Zoning
still contains the previous owner. The covenants in the subdivision do not allow
for B & Bs. He asked that before the lot is purchased, that the Council let the
applicant for the B & B know that there are covenants in place which do not
allow this type of usage. He asked that the Council reinstate the Ordinance
providing for a moratorium on the B & B Ordinance until things can be studied
further.
